Famous Quotes & Sayings

Rebecca Romijn

Carrie Chapman Catt

Everybody counts in applying democracy. And there will never be a true democracy until every responsible and law-abiding adult in it, without regard to race, sex, color or creed has his or her own inalienable and unpurchasable voice in government.

Carrie Chapman Catt

The world taught women nothing skillful and then said her work was valueless. It permitted her no opinions and said she did not know how to think. It forbade her to speak in public and said the sex had no orators. It denied her the schools, and said the sex had no genius. It robbed her of every vestige of responsibility, and then called her weak. It taught her that every pleasure must come as a favor from men and when, to gain it, she decked herself in paint and fine feathers, as she had been taught to do, it called her vain.

Carrie Chapman Catt

Carl Sagan

Scientists can routinely predict a solar eclipse, to the minute, a millennium in advance. You can go to the witch doctor to lift the spell that causes your pernicious anaemia, or you can take Vitamin B12. If you want to save your child from polio, you can pray or you can inoculate. If you're interested in the sex of your unborn child, you can consult plumb-bob danglers all you want . . . but they'll be right, on average, only one time in two. If you want real accuracy . . . try amniocentesis and sonograms. Try science.

Joe Martin

The pioneers are giving way to some of the big guys who can weather all the change.

C. S. Lewis

That way when it's time to hit the ground once the season is over, you're already off and running. The timing is never ideal in a coaching change.

I didn't talk to any school or coaches but did hire a consultant to gauge the interest for us.

Olivia Thirlby

To be honest, I wasn't a sci-fi geek at all. But I do love a good sci-fi film, especially one that can really take you away.

Rick Wakeman

I've got an overactive brain. I enjoy work, I enjoy life, and I'm not good at relaxing. I've also never slept very much due to this overactive imagination and my brain constantly thinking.
